Abstract 15635: Myocardial Function Index Predicts Mortality in Amyloid Light Chain Cardiomyopathy

Introduction: Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis. Current prognostic evaluation in AL cardiomyopathy (AL-CM) largely relies upon disparate proxy measurements to assess mortality. With respect to observed myocardial volume changes between systole and diastole, we describe a single measurement derived from cardiac MRI (CMR) to assess mortality of AL-CM....
